1886 Map of Rome
USGS Topo · Published 1886About this map
The confluence of the Oostanaula River and the Etowah River forms the Coosa River at Rome, a bustling rail hub in the years following the Reconstruction era. This 1886 edition reveals a landscape defined by industrial and agricultural transit, where the East Tennessee Virginia and Georgia Railroad and the Rome and Carrollton Railroad intersect at the city's heart. These iron arteries are supplemented by river crossings such as Queen's Ferry and Miller's Ferry, highlighting a reliance on water-based commerce before the widespread construction of bridges.
